Title: Illuminated dice and storage housing

Abstract: Playing dice are provided with light emitting diodes in their interior together with a battery and master switch in each die. A light emitting diode is associated together with a gravity responsive switch in addition to the master switch for each die face, the arrangement being that the upward face of the die is illuminated after the dice are thrown. A storage housing is provided in combination with the dice, the housing including die receiving compartments having small projections for reception in small bores formed in one face of each die to open the master switch in each die so that there will not be drainage on the batteries when the dice are stored.
